Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese. People are talking about women's basketball
Starting point is 00:01:41 just because of one single game. Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's basketball. And on this new season, we'll cover all things sports and culture.

Hello, the internet, and welcome to this episode of the ninja prender food processor is that the sound of me yeah i don't know i'm jack you are my own and here is some things that are trending um on this fine tuesday afternoon paul gozer
Starting point is 00:02:22 is trending gozar The Gozerian. Not coincidentally sharing a name with a villain from the Ghostbusters world. His entire existence is actually a piece of branded marketing for the upcoming Ghostbusters reboot. And it's really ramping up
Starting point is 00:02:42 because he's gone full evil. He shared an animation of him killing aoc that yeah he's yep a real person who did that and uh is still in congress still in office um that's that's something i mean you know this is where i i I, I'm not surprised. Uh, and I think the lack of action is just further indication of where things are headed. Um, it's,
Starting point is 00:03:12 it's, it's like unbelievable. I think many people have rightly made the comparison of like what other fucking workplace can you share a image of you killing a coworker? Right. And then there's no like, hey, sorry man, you gotta, I think you might have to get the fuck out of here.
Starting point is 00:03:30 But, you know, this is it's fucking Congress and these are the fucking people that we have representing certain parts of the country. So, yeah. I don't know. The center-right has gone full, Yeah. The full, the center, right. Has gone full,
Starting point is 00:03:47 like just, yeah. The, like anybody who is not from this country looks at this and is like, this is terrifying. You guys are on the brink of a fucking civil war or something. You're playing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:59 You're playing. You're playing. You're playing with radioactive waste. Yes. And thinking nothing's going to happen. Maybe not in right then and there yeah i don't know give it give it a little bit yeah you're gonna be feeling that normalizing killing people who are your ideological uh opponents um yeah and i think again this is where this this i think they feel that's their only end game because there isn't a numerical majority sort of that will regularly come out to vote.
Starting point is 00:04:28 So everything just has to be raw power and threats. And yeah, because I mean, you look at even Republicans that even voted for the infrastructure bill, they're getting death threats. But also like Mitch McConnell, are y'all not looking at the Senate? Cause there's Republicans over there. Okay, there okay whatever this is just you know i'm sure there's a lot of different um forces at
Starting point is 00:04:50 work to create these pressure points but yeah i mean we're just constantly seeing the norms be fucking pushed further and further and further out the so we talked yesterday about how the um astral world tragedy was uh being turned into a satanic panic uh ish story that is now in full swing um and yeah it's i i still haven't really even figured out how they're other than that there's like fire and like um like a skull on stage like that that is what's um being i i don't know that it's just wild how how hard they have gone and so i'm just gonna read the two headlines the two main headlines on drudge report which is the most viewed like front page of any news aggregation website um it's a picture of travis scott with fire shooting in the background as you know many uh concerts of all uh musical
Starting point is 00:05:55 genres has fire shooting off in the background um but he looks like he's screaming angrily and the first headline is the devil made him do it and then the second headline is quote blood sacrifice uh you click through on that and they're both stories about um conspiracy theories uh being conspiracy theories from fans um and i don't, it's just so it's not anything new, but it is just such a like thing that America does all the time that. Yeah, I mean, there are people like, oh, there he used the image of a demon where he is a demon. So this was clearly a setup for a blood sacrifice to beasel bub type shit um yeah i don't even know then they even put like there was like this thing where they're liking it to this like hieronymus bosch painting mouth of hell or christ in limbo that they're like this is the mouth of hell like
Starting point is 00:07:00 that's right this is too very well could be that would be art that's called fucking art and the fact that people died in the crowd uh has absolutely nothing to do with that other than uh it was being organized by a massive organization trying to keep up appearances while doing the absolute bare minimum uh and spending as little money as possible. But on the front of keeping up appearances, CNN obtained a doc that prepped the people working the concert for how to deal with tragedy. And they were supposed to refer to dead concert goers as smurfs to avoid having to say like somebody was dead over the airwaves uh because they didn't want people to i don't know
Starting point is 00:07:53 probably their explanation would be they didn't want people to panic but also like you don't want to hear that coming over a radio you're like yeah fuck someone died and now people be like what smurfs oh somebody died right, somebody died. Right, right. Yeah. It's interesting, though, too, because now a lot of the conversation now is, okay, Travis Scott's not satanic. Right. But it's taking a lot of attention off the people who produced this and whatever hand Travis Scott actually had in, if there were corners being cut at his behest or things like that that's really what this whole story needs to be about and it's wild how to like in a way that the sort of narrative like the narrative uh travis scott benefits from this trying to be like
Starting point is 00:08:38 people being like he's not as this wasn't a satanic offering you know that that's all the oxygen being devoted or a lot of it being talked, talked about now rather than, you know, let's keep our eye on the fact that it looks like just gross, gross mishandling of an event. Yeah. Also there,
Starting point is 00:08:57 like, I don't know if we talked about this, but this, the main thing that I'm hearing, like the first thing people bring up when they talk about this tragedy is there's a guy there apparently like injecting people with drugs um not true not true like that's just just no there's not much evidence to suggest that was happening yeah it was the chief of police doing the irresponsible thing of like taking the most sensationalistic, uh,
Starting point is 00:09:27 repeatable urban legend defied, uh, like take on a detail that one of the security officers, uh, passed out. And then, uh, when they came to, they have like what they thought was a prick on their neck.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Um, yeah, there is absolutely no evidence that, uh, anybody was injecting anyone with fentanyl so producer brian has pointed out that it might have been the vaccine that uh they were just this was yet another way for libs to try to get people vaccinated yeah um and obviously uh he passed out because his balls exploded in his pants and um look, I don't have to tell you this stuff. You guys can put two and two together. But that thing reminds me of just how on,
Starting point is 00:10:12 with the Rust gun controversy where the DP was killed, how the defense of the armor was, I think someone put bullets there to sabotage us. It was a setup. Oh, right. Very similar. Yeah. Very similar to be like, armorer was i think someone put bullets there to sabotage us it was a setup oh right very similar yeah very similar to be like i think it i think someone put bullets there is very similar but there was somebody injecting people there was right you know throw throw people off uh the scent by creating an invisible like a super villain boogeyman super villain um yeah uh but yeah i usually when i see america going into a
Starting point is 00:10:48 like satanic panic i'm usually sort of energized to be like no we've done this before this is like so dumb and like now it's happened so many times that i'm just like fucking exhausted just like oh you guys know we've done this before you just don't give a fuck i just don't i mean i want to this and i'm not i don't mean to be flippant but if you're really on this shit please show me a step-by-step guide so i can sell my motherfucking soul so i can become wealthy beyond imagination right how what are the mechanically what's happening and don't point to some loose scripture i want receipts we would have a much bigger problem if this was actually something that we were allowed to do because
Starting point is 00:11:30 americans need need that money i mean right yeah could you imagine like satan's like hey man need a home loan health care sell your soul bro i got you oregon donation just kind of dovetailing nicely with that piece of apocalyptic news. Oregon donation is trending because of a bullshit piece of photo manipulation that is being shared by the right about the right. That is right, said Fred. Right. That is right, said Fred. Right. And it was a picture of like a mobile vaccination site that was saying like, hey, you can get your kids vaccinated here.
Starting point is 00:12:09 And they just doctored onto it and said, and don't forget to donate their organs. Right. Like, okay. And everyone was like, you see what's going on? Oh, right, said Fred. What were the people who shared it in the first place? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:24 And the outrage ensued of like, this is what they're doing at these vaccine sites. They're being like, get your kid poisoned and then also give us their organs. And it took like, you know, some people who are like, no, like here's a news report from the summer or like a while back where someone actually walked by this sign blowing in the wind. And it just said, yes, get your kids vaccinated here. Amen. It's all Oregon stuff. It's weird when you see people regurgitate that verbatim back to you and you're like,
Starting point is 00:12:57 hold on, really? Yeah. Well, how? Yeah. They'll take them maybe we need to cover like a myth that is going to keep coming up every day in the news like what once a week maybe that can be a thing that we add to the show because this i for some reason this like immediately hits my brain as bullshit as does the neck scratching thing like the idea that
Starting point is 00:13:25 evil people are trying to give away their drugs for free is like not a that that's a specific genre of uh urban legend the organ donation thing also seems to be like a a thread that runs through urban legends with um you know the guy who goes on vacation, meets somebody at a bar, wakes up in a bathtub of ice. Oh, yeah. Being like, thanks for the kidney, sucker. Yeah. Dumbass. Should never have trusted a stranger.
Starting point is 00:13:57 Obviously, I was going to steal your kidney. All right. Anyways, that's something we might do on our show. That's what you just heard. Not organ donation. Not organ donation. Unwitting people. No.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Yeah. All right. Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. I'm Jess Casavetto, executive producer of the hit Netflix documentary series, Dancing for the Devil, the 7M TikTok cult. And I'm Clea Gray, former member of 7M Films and Shekinah Church. And we're the host of the new podcast, Forgive Me For I Have
Starting point is 00:14:31 Followed. Together, we'll be diving even deeper into the unbelievable stories behind 7M Films and LA-based Shekinah Church, an alleged cult that has impacted members for over two decades.

Through powerful, in-depth interviews with former members and new, chilling firsthand accounts, the series will illuminate untold and extremely necessary perspectives.

Starting point is 00:15:16 Señora Sex Ed is not your mommy sex talk. This show is la plática like you've never heard it before. We're breaking the stigma and silence around sex and sexuality in Latinx communities. This podcast is an intergenerational conversation between Latinas from Gen X to Gen Z. We're covering everything from body image to representation in film and television. We even interview iconic Latinas like Puerto Rican actress Ana Ortiz. I felt in control of my own physical body and my own self. I was on birth control. I had sort of had my first sexual experience. If you're in your señora era or know someone who is, then this is the show for you. We're your hosts, Diosa and Mala, and you might recognize us from our flagship podcast, Locatora Radio.
Starting point is 00:16:05 We're so excited for you to hear our brand new podcast, Señora Sex Ed. Listen to Señora Sex Ed on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. How do you feel about biscuits? Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes, and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit, where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change their racist mascot, the Rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the Biscuits. I was a lady rebel. Like, what does that even mean? I mean, the Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the Biscuits. It's right here in black and white in print. They lion. It's right here in black and white in the prints.
Starting point is 00:16:42 A lion. An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him to talk to me about the mascot switch. As a leader, you choose hills that you want to die on. Why would we want to be the losing team? I'd just take all the other stuff out of it. On the segregation academies, when civil rights said that we need to integrate public schools, these charter schools were exempt from that. Bigger than a flag or mascot. You have to be ready for serious backlash. Listen to Rebel Spirit on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Do you ever wonder where your favorite foods come from? Like what's the history behind bacon-wrapped
Starting point is 00:17:21 hot dogs? Hi, I'm Eva Longoria. Hi, I'm Maite Gomez-Rejon. Our podcast, Hungry for History, is back. Season two. Season two. Are we recording? Are we good? Oh, we push record, right? Okay. And this season, we're taking an even bigger bite out of the most delicious food and its history.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Saying that the most popular cocktail is the margarita, followed by the mojito from Cuba, and the piña colada from Puerto Rico. So all of these, we have, we thank Latin culture. There's a mention of blood sausage in Homer's Odyssey that dates back to the 9th century B.C. B.C.? I didn't realize how old the hot dog was.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Listen to Hungry for History as part of the My Cultura podcast network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we are back. And there are some claims coming out. These have more of the ring of truth about them, but they are just claims at this point. There are claims coming out that Mike Pence may have had his access revoked to his office
Starting point is 00:18:35 in the Capitol complex during the insurrection and have been forced to run and hide in a loading dock. Yes, because there's no access to the office um and apparently they were there was contingency planning going on once they realized they were locked out of their offices they fled to a loading dock tried to figure out what they needed to do in case there was a true constitutional crisis and how they could remove the president um apparently the the access badges worked in that that morning before the mob got to the Capitol or entered it. But once Pence left the chamber floor, then the badges no longer worked and access was restored.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Now, I don't I'm sure there may be a very, you know, innocent explanation for that. But there's also this thread from the Mueller she wrote, at Mueller she wrote, which I believe is a podcast, was saying that if you cross-reference it with similar anecdotes from other books that had certain reporting, there is this narrative that shows Pence very concerned, a bit paranoid, not knowing who to trust that day um so a lot of things might add up right like he didn't want to get in a car with the secret service is that yeah one of exactly in that book it said uh about him refusing to get in the car with secret service
Starting point is 00:19:56 during the attack he said quote i trust you tim but you're not driving the car if i get in that vehicle you guys are taking off i'm not getting in the car. Um, damn. I mean, that seems pretty revealing. Um, yeah. So I,
Starting point is 00:20:12 I don't know this. It's, it's just like the whole thing was so dark than just the whole situation, uh, that I believe a lot. I mean, it's, it's easy to see how a lot of things might've been put in place if they were
Starting point is 00:20:23 really going for this, like, you know, sloppily orchestrated takeover. This feels like a story that we have been distanced from the reality of it, which is the president spoke to a crowd of people, told them to go like fight for to overthrow the electoral process uh they broke into the like the the shit is not like the the actual details are the things that are being like minimized and like i don't know and the fact that the people who were in concert with the, you know, rioters and people who were chanting to hang Mike Pence have been absolutely like fully openly obstructionist about like any sort of investigation into it. It just doesn't seem,
Starting point is 00:21:18 uh, very complicated. Like it's like, yeah, they wanted, they were just putting it out there. They were hoping they were probably, I'm sure it ranged between people being like we got to take this motherfucker down so that he doesn't like overthrow the election uh you know from their perspective
Starting point is 00:21:36 or it doesn't like let biden come in to people being like i don't know it's like a 20 chance let's just like you know do let them do the thing and see see where it all shakes out um right right all those are i believe uh treason so um yeah gonna be interesting gonna be i mean because there's gonna be more the the january 6 commission already sent out some more subpoenas uh to get more answers or maybe non-answers but i don't know it's like one of these things where like you see all these fucked up pieces and like is someone gonna put these together and then will there be any kind of justice or accountability don't know yet um kyle rittenhouse is trending because the prosecution has rested um after calling i think
Starting point is 00:22:22 like 25 witnesses yeah um some like that yeah some of their witnesses uh apparently supported their theory on the case uh which seems to be the theory on the case that i had after watching the whole thing unfold on video but yeah apparently they showed a lot of video they were like this is here's the thing that happened that we're trying to uh decide like if it was okay but apparently some of their witnesses uh helped the defense um one the only person who survived being shot by rittenhouse testified that he believed the teenager uh was an active shooter pursued him unholstered zone concealed firearm basically he made it sound like he pointed a gun at kyle rittenhouse before rittenhouse shot him but i think he was just you know putting his gun
Starting point is 00:23:12 saying like drop your weapon because he thought he was an active shooter because he was walking around with an assault rifle fucking shooting people and also he shouldn't have been there in the first place he was there with an assault rifle drawn uh killing people it's like yeah well you went to the smoke show with a uh smoke attracting device on your body and then being confused when you're being pursued um it's i mean you know the sec you'd hope that when the jury hears like, hold on, you traveled across state lines to fucking LARP it up as some like street defender and you're underage. There's just so much there where like, I already feel like that already makes this whole thing unreasonable. And that's sort of what needs to be, you know, that's the question that's in front of the jury is whether or not his actions are reasonable or criminal and whether or not the, you know, the Grosskreutz, the EMT who pulled his gun can, you know, contributes to the idea that he was actually defending himself. I'm not sure it's it.
Starting point is 00:24:19 So it's just so frustrating. You feel like these kinds of things could have been open and shut cases or maybe if the cops didn't be like hey bro thanks a lot for that yeah let him walk by this could have been a quicker thing but this is like the the line of questioning and i guess this was probably the line of questioning from the defense but uh the line of questioning places it in the context of like kyle rittenhouse is a cop who's like there and not just somebody who has already like shot people and it has no right to be there shooting people like right and it is like ultimately if we're like not defending anyone's life he's defending property he's defending he he wants them to leave the buildings alone yeah um which i guess an american legal system is probably a fine defense but it's a
Starting point is 00:25:13 tough one it should be jury man tough one i don't know i'm stumped man i think i want to normalize uh underage armed teen vigilantes yeah with this decision because that's what's gonna happen and finally we got an nba uh kind of blood feud going here yeah so yokich nikolai what's his first name nikolai yokich yeah um he's only the nba mvp i'm a real uh real sports nut but he uh he was taking a half court shot and uh marquise morris like kind of body checked him yeah it looked like he was trying to maybe break up the fast break you know just like a professional foul yeah like yeah yeah it was a hard foul yeah it's a hard foul yeah but one of those is just like nah i'm fucking'm fucking the play up. Yeah. Here we go. Fuck this. So, he body checked him and then kind of turned away. It's not like he was like, are you okay?
Starting point is 00:26:09 It was just like... Squared up, yeah. Yeah, squared up and was like, yep. Hard foul. So, Jokic ran at him and really checked him hard in a way that was very violent. And Marquis Morris' head snapped back. Jokic was kicked kicked out deserved to be kicked out um but then there was this like a war of words on twitter marcus morris his uh marquise twin
Starting point is 00:26:35 brother who's also in the nba uh tweeted waited till bro turned his back shake my head noted um and then that prompted yokich's brothers to open a twitter account named jokic brothers to respond to uh marcus morris uh they said you should leave this the way it is instead of publicly threatening our brother exclamation point which makes it sound kind of uh friendly your brother made a dirty play first if you want to make a step further be sure we will be waiting for you jokic brothers signed jokic brothers and then yeah marcus keeps going yeah then marcus was was like my mom told me to shut the fuck up basically well well first right after that he said oh well you got the right ones after that like hey wink you got like if you want it we're here and he said you got the right ones believe that jokic brothers i don't believe i
Starting point is 00:27:29 know that this is so funny man like the whole the whole shit talking it's ridiculous and also like it's interesting to also people be like man you don't fuck around miami like and people like look into the youth of and the childhood of the yokich brothers because they were coming up in a severe war in the balkans uh where it's like you know even like there have been past interviews where he's like yeah there were bombs all the time that we just couldn't even have lights on so most of the time everything was off because the war and you know we were just surviving in a fucking war and it's quite literally born in the darkness and yeah right yeah like born and raised in the in the darkness yeah but it's always fun to see americans still be like no like and i get
Starting point is 00:28:17 it there are rough places that are like war zones in the united states but like yeah it's funny to watch americans be so ignorant of that like the like what happens in the what happened in the balkans in the 90s and then dismiss like that's i don't even know what he's saying that's not real yeah and you're like anyway all that to say um will this turn into like some out of control beef on the court we can only wait to find out all right well uh those are some of the things that are trending on this Tuesday afternoon. We are back tomorrow with the whole last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other. Be kind to yourselves. Get the vaccine. Don't do nothing about white supremacy.
